SQUASH CASSEROLE Summer squash is so versatile but for some reason never got any of the hype that zucchini did, and I’m not sure why—you can still make it into noodles, cut it up and have it raw with Beet Hummus (here) or Ranch Dressing (here), just sauté it in some…
SQUASH BREAKFAST SKILLET This recipe is a squash-y take on Baked Eggs in Tomato Sauce (here). They’re still baked in a tomato sauce, but lots of fresh summer squash is added to up the vegetable count. Squash and tomatoes go so well together, and with baked eggs, this…
SQUASH BISQUE Thick, creamy butternut squash soup is incredibly comforting and perfect on a chilly fall day, although you could definitely lighten it up and serve it any time of year. Make a big batch of this the next time you find a butternut squash at the…
SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH MEAT SAUCE Spaghetti squash has really become a Paleo staple—long before people were spiralizing zucchini and other squash, the humble spaghetti squash was offering up its succulent flesh, which, when roasted and then raked with a fork, releases…
SAUTÉED SQUASH WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES This squash with sun-dried tomatoes is a wonderful side dish for summer. A big batch of it goes perfectly with burgers or hotdogs at a cookout, but it’s also a great option for weeknight dinners and will be great with any…
ROASTED SQUASH WITH CINNAMON Roasted squash has a lovely sweet quality to it, so it only makes sense to accent that with a drizzle of maple syrup and some cinnamon. This recipe is wonderful around Thanksgiving, maybe with roasted turkey or a ham, but it’s great…
BUTTERNUT SQUASH CHILI This chili is really similar to the Chicken Chili (here), but I swapped the meat for diced squash to make it vegetarian. There’s also vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, but if you wanted to make squash chili and use chicken broth (or even…
STUFFED BRUSSELS SPROUTS I think Brussels sprouts are the perfect vegetable for entertaining—you can do so much with them, and you don’t need a ton of ingredients to make them delicious. These little stuffed Brussels sprouts make a fantastic appetizer or side dish,…
SPICY ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS This is my version of the Red Hot Brussels Sprouts I mentioned in the Bacon Brussels Sprouts recipe (here). It’s probably my favorite way to eat Brussels sprouts, and they make a great side dish for any number of entrées or just as a…
SHAVED BRUSSELS SPROUT SALAD WITH APPLE CIDER VINAIGRETTE I don’t know why, but I hardly ever do anything with raw Brussels sprouts. This quick and easy dish is what I make when I remember that they’re great raw, too. The combination of apple cider and honey with the…
ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUT SKEWERS These Brussels sprout skewers are a great party vegetable because you can make them ahead of time and then roast (or even grill them, if you’re cooking out) right before serving the rest of the food. They do take 30 to 40 minutes to…
PANTRY BASIC – CHIMICHURRI Chimichurri is fabulous on a big juicy flank steak, but it’s also fantastic on eggs. If you’re a fan of garlic and fresh green herbs, you’re going to love it—and it’s really good on almost everything, not just steak and eggs. Make it…
